I have following spare items - just sitting around---
1. I have 2 Desktop SFF - one with i7 6th gen processor -32gb ram and another i5 - 4th gen - 16gb ram
2. I have 2 generic NVR - both have 2 tb surveillance hdd
3. I have 3 dual band routers - one is Archer A7 v5 / Linksys EA6900 v 1.1 / Netgear R6250 V2 (only one of them - Archer A7 has openwrt firmware which I have flashed)
4. I have SonicWALL - apl19-05c NSA 240 switch
5. I have 3 ip cameras - one of them is dual lens POE camera (I don't mind buying 3 more POE camera because someone shared a link with me that wifi cams are not good)
I understand generally people here recommend Blue iris - but since I have 2 nvr with surveillance hdd sitting around - I would like to use them...
If you firmly believe I wont be able achieve my primary goal - network security with what I have - please advise what should I buy...
I am not stubborn on using what I have ...just prefer that
So please guide me how best I can use what I have and still secure my home network from IOT devices like ip cams
